When running, it requires only 10MB of \s-1RAM.\s0 .SH "INSTALLATION" .IX Header "INSTALLATION" There are several ways to install cpanminus to your system. .SS "Package management system" .IX Subsection "Package management system" There are Debian packages, RPMs, FreeBSD ports, and packages for other operation systems available. If you want to use the package management system, search for cpanminus and use the appropriate command to install. This makes it easy to install \f(CW\*(C`cpanm\*(C'\fR to your system without thinking about where to install, and later upgrade. .SS "Installing to system perl" .IX Subsection "Installing to system perl" You can also use the latest cpanminus to install cpanminus itself: .PP .Vb 1 \& curl \-L https://cpanmin.us | perl \- \-\-sudo App::cpanminus .Ve .PP This will install \f(CW\*(C`cpanm\*(C'\fR to your bin directory like \&\f(CW\*(C`/usr/local/bin\*(C'\fR and you'll need the \f(CW\*(C`\-\-sudo\*(C'\fR option to write to the directory, unless you configured \f(CW\*(C`INSTALL_BASE\*(C'\fR with local::lib. .SS "Installing to local perl (perlbrew, plenv etc.)" .IX Subsection "Installing to local perl (perlbrew, plenv etc.)" If you have perl in your home directory, which is the case if you use tools like perlbrew or plenv, you don't need the \f(CW\*(C`\-\-sudo\*(C'\fR option, since you're most likely to have a write permission to the perl's library path. You can just do: .PP .Vb 1 \& curl \-L https://cpanmin.us | perl \- App::cpanminus .Ve .PP to install the \f(CW\*(C`cpanm\*(C'\fR executable to the perl's bin path, like \&\f(CW\*(C`~/perl5/perlbrew/bin/cpanm\*(C'\fR. .SS "Downloading the standalone executable" .IX Subsection "Downloading the standalone executable" You can also copy the standalone executable to whatever location you'd like. .PP .Vb 3 \& cd ~/bin \& curl \-L https://cpanmin.us/ \-o cpanm \& chmod +x cpanm .Ve .PP This just works, but be sure to grab the new version manually when you upgrade because \f(CW\*(C`\-\-self\-upgrade\*(C'\fR might not work with this installation setup. .SS "Troubleshoot: \s-1HTTPS\s0 warnings" .IX Subsection "Troubleshoot: HTTPS warnings" When you run \f(CW\*(C`curl\*(C'\fR commands above, you may encounter \s-1SSL\s0 handshake errors or certification warnings. This is due to your \s-1HTTP\s0 client (curl) being old, or \s-1SSL\s0 certificates installed on your system needs to be updated. .PP You're recommended to update the software or system if you can. If that is impossible or difficult, use the \f(CW\*(C`\-k\*(C'\fR option with curl. .SH "DEPENDENCIES" .IX Header "DEPENDENCIES" perl 5.8.1 or later. .IP "\(bu" 4 \&'tar' executable (bsdtar or \s-1GNU\s0 tar version 1.22 are recommended) or Archive::Tar to unpack files. .IP "\(bu" 4 C compiler, if you want to build \s-1XS\s0 modules. .IP "\(bu" 4 make .IP "\(bu" 4 Module::Build (core in 5.10) .SH "QUESTIONS" .IX Header "QUESTIONS" .SS "How does cpanm get/parse/update the \s-1CPAN\s0 index?" .IX Subsection "How does cpanm get/parse/update the CPAN index?" It queries the \s-1CPAN\s0 Meta \s-1DB\s0 site at <http://cpanmetadb.plackperl.org/>. The site is updated at least every hour to reflect the latest changes from fast syncing mirrors. The script then also falls back to query the module at <http://metacpan.org/> using its search \s-1API.\s0 .PP Upon calling these \s-1API\s0 hosts, cpanm (1.6004 or later) will send the local perl versions to the server in User-Agent string by default. You can turn it off with \f(CW\*(C`\-\-no\-report\-perl\-version\*(C'\fR option. Read more about the option with cpanm, and read more about the privacy policy about this data collection at <http://cpanmetadb.plackperl.org/#privacy> .PP Fetched files are unpacked in \f(CW\*(C`~/.cpanm\*(C'\fR and automatically cleaned up periodically. You can configure the location of this with the \&\f(CW\*(C`PERL_CPANM_HOME\*(C'\fR environment variable. .SS "Where does this install modules to? Do I need root access?" .IX Subsection "Where does this install modules to? Do I need root access?" It installs to wherever ExtUtils::MakeMaker and Module::Build are configured to (via \f(CW\*(C`PERL_MM_OPT\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`PERL_MB_OPT\*(C'\fR). .PP By default, it installs to the site_perl directory that belongs to your perl. You can see the locations for that by running \f(CW\*(C`perl \-V\*(C'\fR and it will be likely something under \f(CW\*(C`/opt/local/perl/...\*(C'\fR if you're using system perl, or under your home directory if you have built perl yourself using perlbrew or plenv. .PP If you've already configured local::lib on your shell, cpanm respects that settings and modules will be installed to your local perl5 directory. .PP At a boot time, cpanminus checks whether you have already configured local::lib, or have a permission to install modules to the site_perl directory. If neither, i.e. you're using system perl and do not run cpanm as a root, it automatically sets up local::lib compatible installation path in a \f(CW\*(C`perl5\*(C'\fR directory under your home directory. .PP To avoid this, run \f(CW\*(C`cpanm\*(C'\fR either as a root user, with \f(CW\*(C`\-\-sudo\*(C'\fR option, or with \f(CW\*(C`\-\-local\-lib\*(C'\fR option. .SS "cpanminus can't install the module \s-1XYZ.\s0 Is it a bug?" .IX Subsection "cpanminus can't install the module XYZ. Is it a bug?" It is more likely a problem with the distribution itself. cpanminus doesn't support or may have issues with distributions such as follows: .IP "\(bu" 4 Tests that require input from \s-1STDIN.\s0 .IP "\(bu" 4 Build.PL or Makefile.PL that prompts for input even when \&\f(CW\*(C`PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT\*(C'\fR is enabled. .IP "\(bu" 4 Modules that have invalid numeric values as \s-1VERSION\s0 (such as \f(CW\*(C`1.1a\*(C'\fR) .PP These failures can be reported back to the author of the module so that they can fix it accordingly, rather than to cpanminus. .SS "Does cpanm support the feature \s-1XYZ\s0 of \s-1CPAN\s0 and \s-1CPANPLUS\s0?" .IX Subsection "Does cpanm support the feature XYZ of CPAN and CPANPLUS?" Most likely not. Here are the things that cpanm doesn't do by itself. .PP If you need these features, use \s-1CPAN\s0, \s-1CPANPLUS\s0 or the standalone tools that are mentioned. .IP "\(bu" 4 \&\s-1CPAN\s0 testers reporting.
